Ohhh, right, delay refunds for a month, but when we owe you, you need it right away, huh? 😒

Filed my taxes. Got a federal refund, owed (for the first time ever) the state.

IRS: Sorry, we’re delaying your refund because of a tax credit you selected, but if you go back and unselect it, we’ll delay even more.

Also, IRS: *promptly takes what I owe from my bank account, overdrfting me*

Photo of Vivek Ramaswamy at one of the galas surrounding the inauguration. He's in a black tie rig and black overcoat. Close up of his shirt. There are four black dress studs and one mother of pearl button at the bottom. The white button is circled in red. Next to the circle, it says "DEI button."

We need community. And we need to understand the intersections of that community while staying united.

I’m not afraid because that fear can turn to hate. But I am vigilant.

Any chance #BigBrother is casting for a 4-year-long term, I mean season, starting Monday? I'll play. #RealityTV is much better than #Reality

American society really peaked in the 2010s, y’all.

The less I'm on Twitter and on here, the more jarring it is when I go back over there. It's like jumping in a cold pool.

Recently took a peek at Twitter and the disinformation is getting substantially more dangerous. Someone could get killed.

The tactics of constantly repeating outright lies, targeting specific people, repurposing years-old footage and presenting them as new is getting to another level. It’s scary.

My parents are soooo concerned about me using the subway (even though I’ve lived here for 7 years), and I’m wondering what world they’re living in? Because it’s really just a regular Tuesday evening for me, I don’t even think about it. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I love when people tell me that taking the subway home is unsafe when in reality I live in one of the safest cities in America and I take the subway morning, noon, and night.

I don't like that I keep waking up and weeks have passed. Like... am I not living life fully? What's going on??

Very true!! I have to remind myself that I make an effort to stay informed and consciously seek different perspectives.

YES — and it concerns me that I can only trust those specific sources: am I creating an echo chamber?

Incredibly frustrated that I, a rational, non-conspiracy theorist, have been doubting much of what “we’ve been told” lately.

From politics to entertainment to this UHC killer situation.

Just very skeptical about everything.
Media distrust is at an all time high, and I hate that I’m part of that?

Hahaha! Bad phrasing on my end.
Every. Thing. Is wrong with Trump.

The only *consistent flaw in the Dictator Trump plan that I see is…

Nikki Giovanni, the renowned poet, civil rights leader, and academic, has died.

She was 81.

Glad you’re calling that out because I see it, too — there is no successor. And by the time they find one, Trump will try to screw him over.

Same, and I’ve tried repeatedly.
